Nyquist ran well on the fast muddy track of Churchill Downs and now he’s ready for another sloppy track in which his handlers feel another splendid performance is in order.

“With a horse like Nyquist, I’m not overly concerned about the weather,” trainer Doug O’Neill said on a bright, sunny Friday morning. “As far as rain or shine, we’re not going to change anything shoeing-wise He’s going to wear the same shoes he’s got on. We’d just love to have a beautiful day.”
Nyquist was coming in at -151 odds Saturday morning. Considering he’s undefeated, this is a favorable price requiring a bet of just $15 to win $10 (with the $15 refunded assuming he’s victorious).
Rain had fallen during the morning hours with a lull anticipated until around 4 pm EST with more steady showers by race time. Both Exaggerator (3-1 odds) and Cherry Wine (20-1 odds) are expected to thrive in such conditions.
